Deets and Vibes


This location has two spots that I like to explore. There is a lower and upper parking lot. Usually I like to start at the lower parking lot, which leads to a pebble peach and a brown pathway. The backdrop of the mountains and simple grey/brown tones makes this a beautiful spot. The upper parking lot, which also can be accessed via the beach offers a brilliant vista of the Okanagan Lake and Mountain views. The upper parking lot has this beautiful rocky terrain, tall grass and pine trees.
